Oops! Deleted sound track in Studio 8
In my project in Studio 8, on my last clip I have somehow deleted my sound track. (The voice track under the video track on the last clip is a flat line.)
I didn’t realize this until AFTER I had published the movie and saved and exited the project. Now I can’t seem to get my audio on that clip to come back on.
Is there any way to turn the sound on that clip back on? (The original file was just a long .MOV file of a single-camera, talking-head interview that I had to remove some material and switch the order of some questions around but it really took forever to do.)
Many thanks!

Ah..I half-way figured it out. Double-click the clip (event). Right-click Open in Trimmer. Drag the contents in the trimmer into the timeline at the correct location.
But now I have two duplicate events there. One with audio and one without. How can I remove the one that has no audio without automatically deleting the one that does?
Or – I also tried to drag just the audio track back to the timeline, but couldn’t get it to replace the silent one which was attached to the video track. Is there a way to fix that?

In the trimmer make a subclip out of the event. It will then show up in the project media. Then right click drag the subclip and drop it over the event on the timeline. Chose add as take. Then choose the take you want. The one with sound.

Many thanks!

Ah…I found your post https://forums.creativecow.net/thread/208/872726#872727 “Creating a Subclip” and that helped a lot.
I was able to figure it out and fixed my problem and have my sound back.
Many thanks!

Your welcome. Happy to be of help.

Oh darn!
After I fixed the last problem a month ago and rendered a .WMV file for the customer to review, now they want more edits done.
But I just opened the project again and my Video track is there intact but now the Audio track below it says (media offline) and is silent.
I’ve tried searching Google and this forum for “media offline” to see if anyone has had a similar problem and if it was resolved. But I haven’t seen anything that helped.
Any suggestions?
(I suppose I can start a new project and import the last WMV I made but it would be more ideal to continue to work on the source file.)
Many thanks!
